Terrorists on Trial: A Performative Perspective

In: https://dspace.library.uu.nl/handle/1874/306124

Abstract

On 30 March 2011, ICCT – The Hague organised an Expert Meeting entitled 'Terrorism Trials as Theatre: A Performative Perspective'. The Expert Meeting applied a performative perspective to three well known and recent trials in different parts of the world: the trials against the Dutch Hofstad Group, the Mumbai 2008 Terrorist Attack Trial and the Guantanamo Military Tribunals. As such, the Expert Meeting did not concentrate solely on the immediate judicial performance of the magistrates and/or the defence; instead, the trials were put in their wider sociological context, adopting notions of social drama and communication sciences. This Expert Meeting Paper is a further adaptation of the Discussion Paper that was used as basis for debate during the Meeting.
